[Literature Series] Limitless

To be versed in the art of war is to be versed in the art of attack, lies, distractions and strategy.

To be blinded in one aspect opens you up for vulnerabilities but

To be aware of everything doesn’t guarantee the right choices.

Weight of information is nothing if you don’t know how to distinguish noise from signals.

The campaigns of propaganda is no different from one of misinformation but

The act of not arming your own kind with knowledge can also breed instability.

Complex still is the line between revolts and obedience.

However, even revolts aren’t safe from revolts either,

For so long as everyone has their own agendas and answers, you cannot unite them unless

You give them an enemy they can all agree on

Silence the dissidence

Rally the vocal

Marginalise the minority

Feign honour and glory

Just don’t forget that it was your anger that blinded you from your true purpose,

You have no one else to blame for ignorance.

Ironic, isn’t it?

You point fingers at others for their lack of duty but forget your own ignorance.

No, not ironic, hypocrites.

You demand others when you don’t give it.

You claim you’re the victim

But what about your victims.

Understand this,

Emotions are blinding

You either control them or they will control you.

And your enemies only need to control your emotions to win.

Never forget that you’re not fighting a stupid enemy, never assume that.

Never forget your purpose but drop the act of zeal.

Never ignore facts for they are your ally.

Your goal is not to win but to cripple your foe.

Force their hand.
